Alka Mahendra Shah has been painting since last two decades. Her journey of art was started as an inborn artist. She feels like creating every painting which ever she comes across and her hands follow her heart.Alka was born and brought up in Gir-Gadhala in Saurashtra. She belongs to a business family and she has also spent many years in family business but she was never away from art. Art comes to her naturally.

Alka learnt art techniques by just seeing someone working and then she carried on her journey by self experimenting. She has been running art and craft studio since last 15 years.
